Need quick advice on a bag

[Morticia]

Here's the Gucci I am currently obsessing over. These bags retail for $1,300, I think. Possibly more. I keep losing my bidding wars on ebay.

LOVE the green. I saw a woman with this bag, in the Gucci store on 5th (or was it Madison?). It was fabulous.

Morti- that''s the large horsebit hobo. It is beautiful...but have you tried one on. I''m about 5''11" and nice and juicy and it looked huge on me. But you could definitely fit those running sneaks in there There are SOOOO many fakes of those on ebay. If it''s being sold for less than $700 it just has to be fake. I''d be very nervous unless they had the receipt, a return policy and tell you how they got it!!!

Alllllrrriiigghhttty. I did a stupid thing. I saw this bag this morning and I freaked. Had to have it. It is a used bag in vg condition. I liked the seller''s vibe and for the price, I said, heck, go for it.

It looks nice and big next to the size 2 dummy LOL...But I"m thinking it''s going to be too small....
ARGH. It''s about 10 long X 10 high (to the smallest part) X 5 wide.

I think this is going to be too small, huh? Do I do the unthinkable and not pay for it and take a neg feedback (but give her her relisting fees) or buy it and think about it and resell it?

 

[belle]

you keep it and send it to me

Morticia, Love that Gucci

I do have a question about that bag. I read somewhere that the real Gucci in that style does not have the hidden magnetic closure, but the fake ones do? Anyone have the real deal that can answer that question? Or, am I not making sense and I dreamed it all up?!

 

[Morticia]

Hmmmm.. It depends on how big you want your bag. I don''t think it''ll be too small for you. What''s her return policy?

Libs- I think that they do...you know, they definitely do...I tried it on in saks and I remember it being closed.... that bag is HUGE though. HUGE. Geez, now I''m thinking I should have purchased that bag Hehehehe

no returns...but that''s ok. At worst, I''ll use it for special events

HERE IS BIG NEWS!!!!!!! I *THING* my husband just got me the large horsebit hobo. I''m going to wet my pants. I emailed him the link to my lady who sells them and she had one...and now it''s not available! OMGOMG. I wasn''t sure about it when *I* had to pay for it. Now I''m in love LOL..

OMG, So guilty now. If he knew, he''d divorce me not buy me a bag....

 

[Libster]

MMM,
I must know...did Hubby get you the bag?!

Thanks to you girls, I'm now becoming obsessed with the horsebit bag...too

What a good husband you have. One day, I hope to be so lucky

He''s in training right now, hehe, starting with the smaller pradas and hopefully working our way up

I went a different route to work yesterday and caught a glimpse of this, I think, in the gucci window...I want it, but alas...I think my family would have to kill me. Its like you have $1050 to pay for a purse but not towards any of your grad school. But it looked yummy from the window...They just don''t get my priorities! MMM, you are such a bad influence, I''ve come so close to buying a MJ i wanted, and thankfully talked myself out of it! (for the time being, it will be in the near future) Can''t you take a break from new purses so I don''t have to think about gettng them!

Just kidding, I love your awesome finds.

Such a pretty bag blue! Things can definitely get out of control quickly LOL..

I got a Gucci from ebay today...It was a few years old from the really nice gal and I'm 10000% confident it's real...And I think she kept it in a glass case LOL... But it just came back too small for me. Considering that I'm a giant lady...I'm so bummed. I'm going to relist it on ebay unless JF0 wants it. Whatever. Way to waste $300.... I should have known it was too small....even though it's large- it's like 11.5 long X5 X8 to the lowest point...I don't know if it's allowed, but I'll put the link up when I sell if anyone wants it. I think it's ok b/c I'm not posting this link to make a sale, right Leonid? Let me know. Although maybe I am LOL... I'll take it off if it's a non...here's the original link...

And Libs- He totally didn't get it. I was so mad at him LOL... I was like I was being nice to you for what? My health? LOL... It's ok, it's just way to big anyway...I'm like Goldie Locks...I need one that's JUUUUSTTT RIGHT!

I have the horsebit hobo in brown and sometimes I do feel it''s a bit overwhelming (i''m only 5''0)
It is beautiful though!
